We start the weekend with a Capricorn Moon, one that’s more focused on work and responsibility than relaxing. We’re also coming up to the end of the lunar month, which means that this weekend is a time to pull inward and prepare for the next cycle.

More importantly, Mars in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn today, an aspect that invokes an image of the forces of nature clashing. That said, I want to get to the heart of what this transit means. Think of the force and pressure needed to turn one substance into another or even a diamond. Mars is energy. Pluto is transmutation.

There are times in our lives when pressure forces transmutation. It’s not enough to want to be a better version of ourselves, it’s a physical process. It’s action. In its positive expression, Mars and Pluto speak to standing up for ourselves, finding strength where there wasn’t strength before. It also speaks to the courage of facing something deep in our souls and finally overcoming it.

Let us all turn into diamonds today.
